malexmave 's review for:
The Thousand Names
by Django Wexler
So far, so standard. Nothing really stood out for me in this book, neither positive nor negative. I do like the setting, fantasy with powder weapons is almost criminally underused. I did like Janus, and the beginning of the story reminded me of the Chain of Dogs in [b:Deadhouse Gates|55401|Deadhouse Gates (The Malazan Book of the Fallen, #2)|Steven Erikson|https://d.gr-assets.com/books/1385272744s/55401.jpg|3898716], one of my favourite stories of all the books I've read so far. In fact, between this book and the updates by a GoodReads-Friend, I have decided to re-read the Malazan series when I'm done with the second book of this series, but that's besides the point.
So, nothing out of the ordinary here. If you are looking for a book with fantasy in a powder weapons setting, you basically have the choice between this one and [b:Promise of Blood|15790883|Promise of Blood (The Powder Mage, #1)|Brian McClellan|https://d.gr-assets.com/books/1350337505s/15790883.jpg|21512438] / the Powder Mage Series, and in that case I'd recommend Promise of Blood over this one, at least if you like your fantasy with a lot of magic. If you'd rather have very little mystical stuff going on,why are you reading fantasy? you should pick this one up.
